The relationship has finished but a lover remembers and finds consolation in the sweet dreams of yesterday.

The sweet dreams of yesterday I can’t forget
The first one I dreamed on the night that we met,
I loved you that moment and still do today,
And never imagined you’d wander away.
The sweet dreams of yesterday we couldn’t keep,
And one night you left me while I was asleep.
Why didn’t you tell me, or warn me somehow
That all of our dreams were just yesterday’s now?
The sweet dreams of yesterday I dream of you,
Although now I know they will never come true,
But when I feel empty and lonely and sad
The sweet dreams of yesterday still make me glad.
